So what you are saying is you like kissing your sister. Guess I’ve always been a little more competitive than accept a tie.

Yeah, system is flawless if you can’t win a game and expect it to count as a win if you get to overtime.

Never liked it when the NHL adopted it, and still don’t. Teams always want to bank those points, so play tight down the stretch in regulation.

I’m hoping the prospect of sharing with Denver helps them avoid the post trophy celebration blues that has been prominent on several occasions, and will help us keep our pairwise ranking, with a chance to still improve upon it.

And Denver will get a trophy as well and be the #1 seed if they win tomorrow and we lose. That is because in that scenario, they would win the tiebreaker.

They don’t, for the last time!

It surprises me Berry didn’t know it either.

Tim Hennessy or Olson didn’t even take the time to check the tiebreaker scenario.

Don’t pretend to know the situation, but if they lose tonight, and Gaber and Frisch play tomorrow, I will wonder what one day difference makes, and if a league title should be a situation where you play a little hurt and foresake the next man up mantra in that circumstance.

Omaha is feeling very confident with their game right now, and I think they know they have to continue to play well because their only option is to win the Frozen Faceoff. I don't think they want to take a step back in their play, so I think that is what they hope to accomplish this weekend. What is the over/under on Kleven having some hits reviewed this weekend?

More likely a flip to the OHL, although he did sign a tender with Tri City. We’ll see if anything sticks to Mel Pearson in the next few years.

Oh, was it that hole he was talking out of?

So you want the consistency of Sandelin whose teams are 76 games over .500 in 21+ seasons, over Berry, whose teams are 85 games over .500 in 6+ seasons. It would be interesting to see what other fanbases think of some of our bizarre fans.

So again we are back to the definition of consistent. Duluth hasn't won a league championship in about 30 years, but since they had a few runs at the end of the season, you are holding them out to be the model of consistency.

The first round exit was on a play that was deemed offsides, and 10 minutes later they seem to think there was clear evidence to overturn it, and later the rule was changed to prevent that kind of situation. Don't know how you can put outshooting a team like Boston University 59-29 as a failure on Berry's part, but as Ira said, shallow understanding of the game. NCHC coach of the year, 3 of 6 years, soon to be 4 of 7, but yeah, unless it is 7 of 7 it is pretty inconsistent.

So, here is your chance to put up or shut up. Who should UND be comparing themselves to? Is it whoever wins the championship that year? It used to be Boston College, but you don't hear that anymore. The fact that the comparisons are ever changing, yet UND is still firmly a threat year in and year out, certainly should show that UND hockey is a program that most would love to emulate.

Like I said before, the people that have the highest expectations for Berry have a low expectation of themselves, which really is sad.

And you were praising Berry when he won it, saying that Hak couldn't get it done and you were right. Then you are saying you want Hak back. Drinking too much truly does kill brain cells. Maybe you should look into Prevagen.

Yeah the fact that gfhockey is praising Faison now, shows that the incumbent is always the bad guy.

Not too far removed from this Pastrnak outfit, although this is tame for him.

Yet they continue to bless China with the Olympics.

Bentz has been a very consistent scorer for Moorhead.

I would assume that would only be the case if one team won all of the games.

I guess I will defer to the coaches in college hockey that say he is a man amongst boys and that he is NHL ready. Any of his injuries could just as easily have happened at another level, one of which did against many players that have played pro hockey and played in the Olympics.

I believe Strinden is related to Earl Strinden, so not sure he would leave, but I also think that he will be here. Not sure on James, but I know the coaches communicate frequently with players on what they need to improve on, so I would assume they know what James' thoughts are about coming in or not next year. Even if Senden or Hain don't come back, not sure he will be set to come in for sure. I am sure when they recruited his teammate McGlaughlin, they had a plan in place, and if that included James waiting another year, I am sure they told him.
